Rabbit Trap

In a hypnotic folk-horror fever dream set in 1976 Wales, married musicians Darcy (Dev Patel) and Daphne Davenport (Rosy McEwen) forsake London’s noise for a countryside retreat, hoping to channel nature’s hidden voices into their art. When Darcy inadvertently steps into a fairy ring, they unlock a sound beyond comprehension and invite an otherworldly child (Jade Croot) into their home, whose presence may be as benevolent as it is menacing. Darcy begins to descend into obsession, while Daphne unspools her own inner anxieties beneath a calm exterior. Together they are pulled deeper into folklore’s murk, crossing a spectral line between innocence and something more uncanny. Shot on warm 35mm film, the soundscape is constructed around analogue electronics amplifying every rustle, drip, and breath into a shiver of dread. A quietly unnerving chamber piece, Rabbit Trap lingers in the shadows beckoning you to question just how far you’ll go to capture the right note.
